Welcome to "From Bitter Waters to Sweet"

As I walked the streets of my small midwest town praying for the people and the churches of the town, the words came to me, "Make bitter waters sweet."Those words made no sense at the time.Surely if those words actually came from God they weren't about me. I, the pastor's wife, had a life that other women in my church envied.Shortly after that, my life fell apart and the bitterness that lurked beneath the surface came to the top.But God did not leave me there. Just as He can make crooked paths straight, raise valleys, and lower mountains, so also could He make bitter waters sweet.This blog contains bits and pieces and large chunks of my ongoing journey from bitter waters to sweet.

Sophia's Blog

My friend, Sophia, is blogging about her recovery from being a member of Mars Hill.
I've added her blog to my list.
Today's post is on parenting and how she wants her child to not be needlessly burdened with sin.
She blogs about it here:Rethinking Parenting

I know what you mean about getting videos to embed, or even link.If I could figure out how to link things in blogger comment streams, I'd have linked that video on your blog instead of here. But since I don't know how, I had to do it this way.Glad you were blessed. I love children so much. And so does Jesus. He said, "Let the children come to me and forbid them not."He didn't say, "Make sure your children understand what horrid, sinful creatures that they are."
